Less Than

I will be the first to admit that I have not been at the Top of My Game lately. The Mad Camp Craft Planning Spree hasn’t improved the situation and there is House Cleaning hanging over my head. I am ashamed to admit that I have not ironed the facings of the polo yet (which means that it will not be going with me next week). I did manage to make my half of the starter dishrags.

Abigail made the other half aaaages ago.

While I was taking this picture, I got to wondering how many hand made dishrags other people have. Dishrag knitting is a side project for me so I only have about three that are officially In Use. It’s this sort of rampant curiosity that leads us to our First Dish Rag Tag Preliminary Event:

How Many Handmade Dish Rags Are In Your House?

  • This event is open to anyone with the ability to post a picture somewhere on the internet.
  • All you have to do is take a picture of your personal in-house Dish Rag Stack, post it and leave me a link in the comments on this entry. Please also mention how many dish rags appear in the picture so that I don’t have to count!
  • Whoever can round up the the most hand made dish rags wins some fabulous yarn (I am told that it is well suited to a scarf project) generously provided by Darlene!
  • The deadline for submissions is next Monday. At that time, I will consult my notes and the evidence to determine who really is the Dish Rag Queen (or King).
